Description

Vega Sicilia 'Unico' 1991

Ribera del Duero, DO


85% Tinto Fino, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. A huge array of scents of many dimensions - so Unico. Traces of aniseed. So silky in texture. So beautiful and orangey, with raspberries at the end. Pure berries and pure, stunning quality. A real aristocrat of a wine. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

WA 95


充滿變化及層次的香氣,盡顯酒莊的特色。帶點八角的芳香,口感如絲般滑溜,加上迷人的橘子,覆盤子及槳果味道,非常出色。施慧娜(葡萄酒大師M.W.)
